Dolce died on January 6th, 2011 due to an inoperable brain tumor. She was four. Brain tumors, by the way, seem to be impossible to "diet" away - though we did try for six months, with every anti-seizure medication known to man, with fancy dog food and home-made dog food, and words of affirmation (the tastiest of all!), and lots of open mouthed kisses and attempts at tickling. Laughter is the best medicine, you know. Unfortunately, I could never get Dolce to laugh.
This is Dolce, playing with her Christmas present, ten days before she suffered uncontrollable cluster seizures while we were on a walk and was put to sleep on January 6th, the saddest day of my life.
She fell asleep on my lap after that and came in very handy when it was time to take the decorations off the Christmas tree.
I'm sure Dolce is in heaven, drinking Slim Fast shakes and playing with Jon Benet Ramsay.
